What's up today (bullchiting) thread.

I'm feeling the pressure of getting exterior house work done before the cold weather arrives. The list slowly gets shorter but so is the time to get things done.

 

Got the deck furniture and lawn swing put away along with the 80' garden hose. Covered the wood pile and am currently doing a "test burn" on the OWB. Had to add about 8 gallons due to a leaky boiler drain valve this past summer and am waiting for it to come up to temperature.

Now the cottage has a list of summer ending chores waiting for me................

 

Well it's Sunday so we just got two and a half cord of wood up onto the wood deck. From the Outback stacks, which is probably 500 yards from the wood deck. I love front end loader, that would have really stunk with wheelbarrow

 

Wheelbarrows suck.

The tractor with the FEL is a great tool to to have.

 

Still a pile of front end loader trips. I love pickup trucks for moving!

 

First fires of the season this weekend. Decided I better finish up another stack of ash/elm for the coming years.



Took a couple pups with me but they weren't much help

 

Nice stacking job. Dennis will approve of the cribbed ends.

 

Hey buddy! Heading out to Menards tomorrow...(I think).

Need something?

 

Didn't watch a single snap of football all weekend. Kinda nice. Actually I didn't watch any TV all weekend. Even better.

 

I like tv so I can't like that post.

 

Caffeine! Rain outside. Time to get a move on and get a few things done around the house. Then off to work. You hoarders have a good day.

 

Coffee shop this morning.

Last week, I broke down and had a cinnamon roll thanks to thewoodlands new avatar!

 

FEL is paid for.. Don't own pick up YET.. Plus with loader onto deck is any height I want it.. About 7 loads per cord..

Yes your right.. I want a truck.. Someday..

 

40 here this a.m. but clear. Looks like the rain is staying south of us. then takin a trip down to the farm/shop to see whats shakin'. Everybody have a great day.

 

Well work with what you have.

I guess if you have a big enough SUV you can pull a trailer to get wood, move the tractor, or bring supplies home. Still a pain.

It would be very hard for me without a truck. Doable but hard.

 

Steady rain yesterday after our walk. Blue Jays lost the last game of the season. I think the rain has stopped now this morning so we can get our walk in. It's Monday - beginning of a new week and a new month. Where did September go?

 

Were at 64f this morning.

 

Funny - too late. Already went...and yes I bought laundry detergent.

 

Thanks....not sure it's close to his standards though.
